appropriation; waterline project; Ganado
SB 1523 allocates $340,000 from Arizona's state general fund for the Navajo Nation to cover design, planning, and construction costs of the Ganado waterline pipeline project. The funds are specifically designated for the Navajo Nation community in Ganado, Arizona, to address water infrastructure needs. The bill includes an exemption from standard appropriation lapse rules, ensuring the funds remain available for the project even if not fully spent by the end of the fiscal year. This is a direct funding measure with no additional policy changes beyond the financial allocation.
